A clip on, besides being an abomination, might be lost in a fight.
For many reasons, I reject the clip-on completely.
Now, I am a bow tie wearer myself, who would never wear a clip-on and since you mentioned buying presents for your Dad being a tad awkward, let me introduce you to Beau Ties Limited.

Bow Tie maker. What I like about them is you can specify your bow tie width. I'm partial to slim line bow ties rather than butterfly bow ties and this is one of the only places I can get them (other than ebay looking through the vintage bow ties).
